For the sad old earth must borrow IT, mirh,

We hear great deal Of discussion now
all over the land about
WHY PEOPLE DO NOT GO TO CHURCH.
Some say it is because Christianity is dy-
ing out, and because people do not believe
in the truth Of Gods word, and all that.
They are false reasons. The reason ia he
cause our sermons and exhortations are not
interesting, and practical, and helpful.
Some one might as well tell the whole
truth on this subject, and 20 / will tell it.
| The religious discourse Of the future, the
Gospel sermon to come forth and shake
the nations and lift people out Of darkness,
will be popular sermon, Just for the sim
pie reason that it will meet the woes and
the wants and the anxieties Of the people.
There are in all our denominations eecle-
siastical mummies sitting around to frown
upon the fresh young pulpits Of America,

ing ministers of the Gospel is better
collegiate education and an apprenticeship
under the care and home attention Of some

Young physicians with old physicians,

Once more Death has been in Gun
midst, and this time il has taken the only
child of Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. Ruyle. From
the fhst, she was very sick. and there was
not much hope for her recovery. The
morning Of March q, after bidding her
father and mother an affectionate Good
bye, she passed away. She was some five
or six years OF age. The memory of her
happy, loving ways viii remain with Us,
and add to our sympathy for the bereay-
cd parents While we, as friends, can
not Tighten the load of sorrow that has
come upon them, we can assure them of
our sympathy, and hope that the same
little one who babe them Goodbye viii
be one of the first to greet them where
patings are no more.
